Overview

Property

Cedar Lodge is a newly restored cedar clad 2 bedroom cottage in the tranquil countryside setting of Pallington, a small hamlet just east of Dorchester and only a few miles from the beautiful Jurassic coastline in Dorset. Nestling on the approach drive way to the 17 acres of grounds where the owners have a working carriage driving yard. The lodge visitors have access to adjacent woodlands so ideal for walkers and cyclists. The lodge is well-equipped and furnished to a high standard, providing quality holiday accommodation. The property is open plan with splendid views, the light and airy design with all modern conveniences makes it a lovely place to just relax and unwind. The patio and secure garden also supports those who take pleasure being out of doors and who enjoy bringing their pet on holiday. There is parking spaces for at least 2 cars.

Cedar Lodge Pallington Dorset

Excellent well appointed cottage tastefully furnished complete with outdoor garden furniture and fully enclosed garden, which was great for our dog Tayles. Another bonus, the cottage faced South, so sitting in the sun when warm was good, but I would imagine that even during winter, it would be lovely with the sun streaming through the French door windows. The owners Tony and Sue made us very welcome and reading the visitor book one cannot fault this cottage at all. We shall certainly return.

About the Owner

I have been in Dorset since 1967. I bought the property, Highsteppers, the ground that Cedar Lodge is set on, in 1999. My partner Sue and I needed ground to keep my team of horses and as we have access straight into the forest it was perfect. On the grounds I have built my house and the coach house, restored Cedar Lodge and my next project will be to knock down the old barn and build a new barn to stable the horses.

Guestbook comments from the owner

Very warm and welcoming cottage with everything we needed. Fantastic for the dog. Great centre from which to explore Dorset countryside and coast. We will be recommending to others and we will be back.

Excellent

WE have just returned back from a short stay at Cedar Lodge and would 100% highly recommend this place. It has 5* quality with the interior design and equipment to a very high standard - spotless and every thing one could imagine that is needed ! The location is set within easy distance to Dorchester and Monkey World and then down to Lulworth cove areas. The setting is stunning and the owners are very very friendly and keen to ensure the stay is comfortable, private and trouble free.

Highly recommend to anyone who is looking - great great great! Thank you very much x

Relaxing Getaway

The lodge has been beautifully restored. Everything you could wish for and need, comfortable & warm. In a lovely setting, quiet but within easy access to the coast. Sue and Tony are great hosts and can't do enough for you, even down to the lovely welcome pack of fresh eggs, fresh bread and milk. If it's a quiet week away your after, in the countryside, in great surroundings then book Cedar Lodge!!!

Great

A clean and well presented cottage - home from home. A good central location to explore the gorgeous countryside and coastline of Dorset. The owners were very helpful and more than willing to involve our daughter with the care of their horses and even took her for a ride on their pony and trap - her highlight of the holiday!
